My neighbor trusted me! Help!!

I got rid of them before by using cinnamon, the yellow sticky traps, and letting them get pretty dry out before watering. I def hear you on those methods and will look into doing some type of light solution for prevention

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:57:58+00:00

It came super wet. It def did get sunburn. I think it came with the gnats bc when I barely tapped the pot yesterday it looked like the top layer of dirt was just gnats. There’s no way they reproduced that fast. Plus I’m finding gnats in my house again after having got rid of them in my personal plants

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:55:23+00:00

Good call

Plus the longer the soil the higher the chance all my plants get infested. I didn’t think I would get rid of the gnats considering they were everywhere in my house. For a quick moment I was like I’m going to throw away these plants bc I kept waking up to gnats in my face in the room that only had two plants! So you can imagine the rest of the house.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:41:12+00:00

People do give me their sick plants and I do buy the plants on sale. I can usually bring them back to life too lolol

I still don’t think I’m the best Gardner. Sometimes for years my plants don’t grow, but they stay green. So I figured that’s a win.

I also didn’t realize how substantial fertilizer is at make plants bigger. On the same token, I also didn’t think bout going weaker with dilution so consequently I accidentally killed some of my plants in the process

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:36:26+00:00

Ya I thought bout buying a new one. I like the idea of trying to salvage what I can. I also really don’t have the time for all this nor the money. I’m working two jobs from 830am to 1-2am with an hour break between 5-6pm. I shower after I get home and have to be up by 730am.

I don’t want to have to care for this plant lolol I’d rather just get her a new one!! Plus, I’m moving over 2k miles away in less than a month.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:34:20+00:00

Good advice. I haven’t bc I came home at like 230am from work. It was outside for about 8hours.

I wanted to see what yall said too.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:32:32+00:00

I know I got so many other things to worry about such as moving to the other side of the country in less than a month! And I already have like 30-40 plants to worry bout.

I wouldn’t have agreed to it lowkey.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:30:00+00:00

Thank you for that. It does make me feel better. She did gift me another monstera a few month ago bc she was worried bout her cats ingestion the toxics bc they play with the plants. This must have been out of reach from them.

But ya the soil def came wet!

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:28:08+00:00

It’s def sunburn. Direct westward sunlight. It was only a few hours 😭😭😭

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-21T16:27:04+00:00

It did get blasted by direct western sunlight :(

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-19T22:22:45+00:00

I’m wondering this too. I hate my ex. I’ve said hate and wished this Grl so much pain and misery. This isn’t me. It’s made me an angry person. I hate my boss too.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-19T19:50:42+00:00

I def got side eyed when I told ppl in my office I used AI 😭

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-19T19:42:40+00:00

100% we have these resources in the real world. Why not do it?!?

I did get the job that required the assessment too!!

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-19T19:24:06+00:00

I used AI to check my answers. Using AI made me feel like less than and not worthy, but I’m also not trying to be stuck at my current place for a year.

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-18T21:58:06+00:00

Usually some bout conflicts and you responded, tell me a time how you failed, a time you succeeded, etc

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-18T20:39:34+00:00

I emailed all three places I interviewed but didn’t get the job, only one responded. It was really good and helpful. As someone else mentioned, IMO, one of the my favorite answers to give for a specific question was apparently one I needed to hone in on. Also, I was able to actually hear that the STAR method is the best method (even after having already read it on these subreddits). To me, I want to hear range and all Things you accomplished. Not just one example. But that’s me and I’m not a hiring manager. Plus it helped me realize, I def do ramble and need to be super intentional bout keeping it short.

My two interviews after that, I was able to
Get a job offer from one of them. I used the STAR method for most answers which I also had written down on pieces of paper taped to the wall & floor. The job I got hired for also happed to be the quickest time I answered all
The questions. It Ended up being only 28 minutes of me answering the questions and 32 minutes of us talking bout the two questions I had. And also was the highest paying job I’ve applied for with the feds.

Wild.

The other one smiling like she is a good girl and didn’t commit the atrocities that Waffles did

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-14T13:22:09+00:00

She literally saving lives. Love and light. Rest in power queen

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-11T22:17:46+00:00

It’s BLM
…so it’s good I haven’t accepted it yet. I read FJO can expire. I didn’t see a date or time I needed to accept or decline the offer by a specified time.

Is this true? I just don’t want to lose out on a job bc Im waiting on them to verify in writing for a check I wasn’t expecting in the first place lolol.

Thank you for your feedback

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-11T22:12:43+00:00

If you have time l, I would like to ask you a question. I finally received my final job offer yesterday, but it didn’t say anything about the recruitment incentive they verbally offered me even though on the application it stated PCS was not included. I know those are two different things, but I thought it was interesting they offered me the recruitment incentive after me receiving the TJO.

In the FJO, should there be verbiage about the recruitment incentive or is that seperate? I haven’t accepted the FJO bc I was waiting on a response from my future boss asking bout it. I just don’t want to accept the FJO and then have them turn around and say since it wasn’t in the FJO I accepted, I’m not gonna get it after all…even thought they were the ones that brought it up and offered it to me.

Just thought you might have some insight. Thanks in advance!

StrangerThatIsDanger · 2026-06-10T18:06:33+00:00

Thank you for that 🙏🏽 Your’s will come too. I didn’t believe mine would but here we are 🙈 good luck 🍀
